Did Ayu...?

[Taki]

Ayu not fat on this performance it is simply wrong coding of video, the picture a little stretched that's all.

[Qt Mashi]

yeah i just watched the performance and she has gained weight lol, but the video is a bit stretched, if u can change the aspect ratio then it should be 4:3, and her arms will look thinner

That's exactly what I was thinking. She looked like a twig before

[Catzi]

Wow, if Ayu was 88 lbs. before then she was really underweight! I mean with her height! Wow! O.O

Ah, and nice picture of Hikki there.

[extepan]

she really had some weight on when she released seasons. the 2001 tour dvds are almost heartaching to watch!

And during 2001 she looked like a tooth pick.

[etheruraura]

I don't think Hikki looks fat in those pictures. Sure she's not a toothpick, but she's nowhere near fat

Whenever celebrities gain a couple pounds these days everyone's always "OMG THEY GAINED 40 POUNDS" when they actually needed to put on some more weight in the first place..

But Ayu doesn't look like she gained weight on the MS blog thing..and to be honest, in that performance, it looks like she sort of gained muscle. But, who knows.

[Isthan]

She looks like she has gained a little weight... we might be wrong, though. Perhaps it was just the dress.

I don't mind if she has or hasn't. The performance was amazing, she looked and sounded amazing, looked happy... that's enough for me.

[Eu-Kun]

yea shes fatter... but i love her hair

[sakura_mars]

Ok, a) I think those sleeves don't help. Those are the sleeves that got that one designer kicked off of project runway, lol. They make everyone's arms looks fat.

She does not appear to have the ultra skinny arms that she used to, that is for sure, but I think we need another performance or two to really get a feel for if it is her or the dress or the video...

when I watched the Bluebird perfs, I thought she looked pregnant, but it was probably mainly the dress. It's natural to expect a woman who's almost 30 and dating a stud like Nagase, and I think we can't get it off the brain "when will she settle down"

[evolution7931]

Hey, don't most people's metabolism slow down around the age of 30? Maybe that has something to do with it.. I forgot that Ayu's almost 30 O_O..

[truehappiness]

I think that Ayu being away from Japan kinda made her.. yeah..

Rather than just a few weeks, it was like months at a time.
No trainer to help her stay in shape.. so.. yeah. :p

For me, happens at 23 T___T (now I'm 24)

[Princess_Of_Roses]

Ayu didnt gain weight..she just probably hurt her arm thats why it looks bigger..the other one isnt..and I dont know if anyone posted these pixs from the talk of Music Station




I think its just the dress ^^ *the black one* the white one makes her look skinny ^^

[Chibi_Venus]

When I was looking at an Arena Tour 2005 picture I thought she looked MUCH skinnier in an Arena Tour 2006 picture, so if her arms are "fat," it probably looks fine (to me). I didn't notice her arms.

If she was getting larger or if she thought she was, I really hope Ayu wouldn't go to drastic measures and think that she'd have to do liposuction!

[truehappiness]

Liposuction isn't something that short people who have never weighed 100lbs in their life do :p

[pbs1605]

I think she is looking great.

[starr5245]

wahhh, no matter what she still is pretty!

[[ Melinda ]]

If she did gain weight, I don't actually even notice or care. She still looks amazing!

Before anyone flips out, a chunk of OT posts were moved to trash. If you want to gossip about Ayumi and pregnancy, there is a thread for that. Keep in mind that with both threads, be reasonably mature or they will be closed.
